   Coming back to Barretta after 8 years, I must say the food was not good. I’m shocked. It was not up to its name and I was sad. I loved this place.

   Lovely, relaxed pre-theater dinner. Prices very reasonable. Broad food selection - amazing desserts. Old-fashioned fancy so a nice break from bistros and sushi bars. Some of the dishes are true classics.

   We had a phenomenal dinner at this wonderful restaurant on restaurant row in New York City. We introduced a friend of ours to this restaurant, it was her first time there and she was absolutely blown away with how beautiful the restaurant looked, both upstairs and downstairs. We loved the countless choices of food on their fixed price menu. The beet salad and pasta appetizers were extremely delicious. The short ribs, salmon and fillet were cooked to perfection. And we absolutely loved the hazelnut tart and pistachio desserts. The service as always was top notch. Everyone was super attentive & extremely friendly. Thanks to everyone for an "awesome" evening !!!

   I’ve eaten here several times; from the mid 70s until now. And I’m pleased to say the atmosphere, food and service remain excellent. It certainly is a throwback to earlier years; but that is to the credit of the owner and manager. If you want to return to dining out of the late 70s, I highly recommend Barbetta.

   Barbetta is an elegant restaurant. The atmosphere is beautiful. It’s old NY charm. The food was fabulous and the service is too. We’ve been there a few times always a pleasure

    The food & service were wonderful. Our only tiny complaint was waiting 20 min at the end for our check.
